I remember watching this video in '08. Carefully scrutinizing every frame, teaching myself to play this version... 2021, and I still don't have it quite right. What an enormous talent he is! Still in awe.
@@stormz6626 tabs only do so much. They just can't give you the feel/groove of a seasoned musician. And, there is a much bigger feeling of accomplishment learning something by ear than there is in learning the tabs.
@@K1R4D i get what you mean, it just helped me to learn it. And I get a great feeling every time I play it even though I didn’t learn it from hearing/ this yt vid
i love hearing something so nostalgic to my childhood.. my introduction to the appreciation of music.. even a ‘vintage’ youtube video.. but still so incredibly current to my ears. i hope this video lasts forever and ever.
best cover of ANYTHING i've EVER seen EVER. PERIOD. I bought myself a guitar yesterday... I'm sooo going to learn to play like this no matter what the cost!
This is a callout - WE NEED THIS GUY TO RE-RECORD THIS WITH BETTER QUALITY AUDIO! This was one of the first videos I ever saw on RUclips and it inspired me so much to play my guitar. And I still do :D
Whenever Tomi plays the fast lick before coming back into the verse (1:29) you can hear someone laugh in amazement in the background! I've done that same laugh many a time while watching some great guitarists. There's not much else I can say about the performance that's not already been said but I hope one day I'll be at least half as good as you, Tomi. Thanks
this is so unbelievably good. like audio chocolate. i didnt think i could ever like this song ever again after 3 years of hearing it every night at university but this is incredible
You've got this rigged to sound like a bass and an acoustic. You are TALENTED, and I live for this song! I've been trying to learn this cover for years, but I can't perfect it like you did. Amazing :)
Okay, I hate people who comment on the dislikes. But who the hell could ever dislike this!? Even if it's not your cup of tea, give this guy credit! He's amazingly talented!
Rhythm + Bass + Lead + Vocals all on one guitar Dood's a one man band!! Does anyone else realize how difficult this is . WoW I'm impressed really i love the drum strikes on the guitar with the hand @2:57, Perfect Brother keep it up!! Awesome song That particular song always brings back a lot of memories!!. Isn't if peculiar how certain songs and smells can bring back a certain memory

I'm pretty sure I saw this back in '07. Did the same thing, set out to learn it. Obviously without that lick just before the second verse.
@@thegardenofeatin5965 oh, I tried to figure out that lick too... Never got it quite right!
The tabs is free on the internet u know

7 years on and I'm still just blown away with this playing.
What about now? ⚡️
2005! Such a nostalgic piece
+xHench 11 years,
Want to listen it yet on RUclips and I see 2005 ........ ootch !!!!! O_O !!!!
So I'm growing old ^_^
Time flies, doesn't it...
@@webaSure does . And this still gives me goosebumps sinse I first heard it back in 2008.
Every now and then my motivation to practice gets a little lax, so i put this on. Still doing it for me after all these years. LOVE IT!
This is freakin’ acoustic guitar beast mode ! The arrangement , tone , driving bass line , melody etc. this is ridiculously good
After so many many years, still one of the best acoustic performances on utube. Amazing

I saw this years ago and wondered if it still existed, glad to find it once again!
@@sofail4738 turn down for what
@@sofail4738
I shall now prepare for three years of hell of only playing this song on guitar until I perfect it.
@@quillmorningstar8713 To be really fair, it is not that hard, but there are some tricky parts to it. Bestest of luck, pal :)
Found this cover many years ago and yet to this day im still blown away by this argument hands down my favorite
2023 and this is still one of the best fingerstyle covers
Whenever Tomi plays the fast lick before coming back into the verse (1:29) you can hear someone laugh in amazement in the background!
I've done that same laugh many a time while watching some great guitarists.
There's not much else I can say about the performance that's not already been said but I hope one day I'll be at least half as good as you, Tomi.
Thanks
Great observation on the " Laugh " 👍😊
this is so unbelievably good. like audio chocolate. i didnt think i could ever like this song ever again after 3 years of hearing it every night at university but this is incredible
Dude, this is so legit! You're playing the rhythm and melody at the same time. BEASTNESS
without words to describe this performance,

Good old memories with this cover. Now, RUclips shows me this in the recommendations.
How lucky are we that you recorded this with such great audio, so long ago. Would love to see an updated version ❤
I've been watching this video for five or six years now and it is still amazig. You're incredible man. Unbelievable.
2018 still watching
2019!
The best who is, the best who was, and probably the best cover guitarist who ever will be. Grandiose performance!!!
damn it man, that is ridiculous. Amazing. I've been replaying this over and over again.
One of the vids that made me fall in love with an acoustic guitar.
Who the f**k put a thumb down on this amazing
16 years ago, I still remember when this is new and I go and bought my first guitar to learn play like this, time pass quick.
SUPER PERFECT AWESOME TALENTED HEAVENLLY GREAT!!!!.....these words aren't enough for this playing!!!!!
Seen alot of shit on this site over the years, but this is still easily in my top 10! Like the song or not, it is an incredible cover!
spot on
14 years later I still can't play that song
Agreed! Saw Tommy in Springfield IL a few years back, unbelievable! I love this cover
Absolutely Fabulous!! Great work, Tomi!
WARNING: normal chord players, you will give up guitar after watching.
i can relate to that
Neil Castro Nope just gives me more reasons to not give up :)
nope, became a better fingerpicker learning this one.
Tabs please
